	June 30, 2020					December 31, 2019

(3) Through the Liberty Transaction, we assumed $2.5 billion of senior notes, $246.9 million of secured mortgage debt and a $100.1 million term loan with a weighted average stated interest rate of 3.8%. We subsequently paid down $1.8 billion of the assumed debt with senior notes we issued at lower rates in February 2020. See below for additional activity on debt assumed in the Liberty Transaction and the extinguishment of a significant portion of the debt subsequent to acquisition.

(4) Through the IPT Transaction, USLV assumed $341.8 million of secured mortgage debt, all of which was paid down at closing. See below for the early extinguishment of debt in the IPT Transaction.
